Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't cry because it's over now
Smile because it was ours
Keep your feet firm on the ground
Your eyes fixed on the stars
'Cause it never mattered who you are
[Verse 2]
Make your life a message
And bring light to all you see (To all you see)
And make your words a message
That will be (That will be)
A blessing comin' back to me
[Verse 3]
Make your life a storybook
With no apologies (No apologies)
Make your life a message
And you'll be (And you'll be)
A blessing comin' back to me
[Verse 4]
All I know of life and love
I wrestled into words
Rest assured that life goes on
And moves on it's own terms
So be careful 'cause it might just burn
[Verse 5]
Make your life a message
And bring light to all you see (To all you see)
And make your words a message
That will be (That will be)
A blessing comin' back to me
[Verse 6]
Make your life a storybook
With no apologies (No apologies)
Make your life a message
And you'll be (And you'll be)
A blessing comin' back to me
[Verse 7]
Life's a message, life's a message
Life's a message (Life's a blessing)
Life's a message, life's a message
Life's a message (Life's a blessing, ah)
